Two years ago, Emily’s journey began. She learned the ancient magic of her Celtic ancestors, and became a modern Celtic Priestess. The golden torc, forged by faerie hands, is still wound around her arm, fused to her soul. She was entrusted with powerful magic – secret knowledge. But even a Priestess can feel desire – temptation – and the quest for love. Will passion entice Emily to use her sacred magic in a forbidden way? Can new love take root in a world of nightmares? And will her friendships survive Emily’s Trial? The Journey Continues . . .

I enjoyed book 2 of the Akasha Chronicles even more than book 1. In typical teenager fashion, Emily is bored and wondering what life has in store for her. Unfortunately for Emily, her boredom, combined with her crush on one of the popular boys, add up to a bad temptation that lead her and her friends into a dark netherworld where Brighid's dark brother is imprisoned. Emily learns a lot of lessons about true friendship and what happens when she uses her powers for the wrong reasons. I thought the plot flowed well and the dialogues between the teenage characters rang true. I also thought the addition of Gretchen as a new main character was a good one, as it's hard to tell which way she'll go. The book ends with everything looking pretty bad for Emily, so I'm looking forward to reading how all the various issues are resolved in book 3.

Emily is two years older in the second book Emily's Trial in the Akasha Chronicles and has become a Celtic priestess with powers and her friends and followers. One of the things I liked about the first of the book is that she no longer hides what she has become from her peer even though she is different. This book is written for young adults or teenagers and being true to yourself but different from your peers often creates problems for this age group. The differences are presented in a positive manner, even if Emily does not receive total acceptance of her peers; this is so like what teenagers face in real life.
This adventure continues for Emily to a dark realm where she grows and develops along with the cast of other teenage characters. The story is exciting, interesting and holds the reader on the edge of their seat waiting to see what happens next. Both of Natalie Wright's books in this series, Emily's House and Emily's Trial are great fiction for young readers.

Two years have passed since Emily discovered she was a descendent of a high priestess in the Netherworld. Unfortunately the fame has gone to her head and she's not as nice as she used to be. To impress her boyfriend, she takes him through a portal as she did in the first book. But the world she encounters is even darker. The ruler of that world, Ciardha, lives and grows on people's fears. All the negative thoughts Emily and her friends have, come true. The trick is to get out alive.
Author Natalie Wright, does a very nice job with world building. The writing is very descriptive, and the reader can feel that he or she is actually there. Emily's Trial is a book that would appeal to YA fantasy lovers.

In the second book in the series, Emily has grown and matured by a couple of years. She is now a High Priestess and has really come into her powers. Turns out that is a very good thing as she crosses the portal into a really dark and evil world where she needs everything she has to fight against the danger and negativity there.
I have now read both Emily's House (The Akasha Chronicles) and Emily's Trial (Akasha Chronicles) and must say that while I liked them both, the second book is much, much better. The plot is sharper, the characters are again a highlight of this book and the plot has more depth. The detail Natalie uses is exquisite. Each of the negative thoughts and fears felt by Emily and her friends while in this world actually come true and they really live them. They really are quite scary at times...the stuff of our nightmares.
This is a very well written and enjoyable book. It has humorous, romantic, terror-filled and suspenseful moments that all serve to keep you on the edge of your seat.

This review is from: Emily's Trial (Akasha Chronicles) (Kindle Edition)
EMILY'S TRIAL is the second book in the "Akasha Chronicles" after Emily's House (The Akasha Chronicles)

Another great read in the growing series by Natalie. Well written with lots of suspense that kept me on the edge. The characters are becoming so real with wonderful descriptive action. Can't wait until the next in the series.
This is another gripping fantasy adventure with Emily and her 2 friends, Fanny and Jake, away in Netherworld. The journey begins with a high school prank and ends with the death of a new friend. Emily must make some hard choices in order to stop the Apocalypse she started, while the Goddess Brighid is imprisoned and helpless.
A well-written and captivating story. Highly recommended.
